worth it on sale for complete edition?

Most people are saying the base game 9.99 or the 360 edition are the best ones to get

Apparently the year 1 pass is cosmetics and travel stuff that isn't worth getting

I personally played this game back in beta and liked it but didn't love it. I played descenders beforehand and this game just didn't compare at all because descenders gives you true free range of motion on the bike

Anyway tangent aside, on sale this game is definitely worth it. I'd say grab the base and then get the DLC in the future on sale if you enjoy it. If money is no concern then online says 360 version gets you everything you need

I am new here and trying to understand if this game can be played solo and offline.

You can only play zen mode offline which is a giant map with no events

To customize/do events etc even when not doing multiplayer you need an online connection. So yes you can do solo stuff, but you need Internet

I was like you week ago. I had two options: base game 7.5 eur or complete edition 26.40 eur.

After searching a lot about the extra content I decided to go with standard version and I'm happy about my choice.

BMX and Skate careers are short and they are all tricks. Even BMX career doesn't have races in it, just tricks. That's lazy development.

Plus complete edition doesnt include the new longboard, but you can try it in user made events (and that works also in standard edition).

If you like races more: get standard (though year 1 pass (included in complete ed.) has toy race events: Snowmobile Freestyle 10 events, Jumbobike 10 events)

If you like tricks more or both: then complete edition on sale might be for you

[Benchwarmer]

Standard version sports:

Bike Race: events 30, big events 5
Bike Tricks: events 19, big events: 4
Snow Race: events 18, big events 4
Snow Tricks: events 33, big events 5
Air: events 29, big events 4

DLC sports:

BMX Tricks (Year 1 pass): events 15, big events 2
Skate Tricks (Skate add-on): events 13, big events 1
Longboard Races (Year 3 pass): 10 events

DLC toys:

Snowmobile Freestyle (Year 1 pass): 10 events
Jumbobike (Year 1 pass): 10 events

DLC Ridge Ultimate:

8 events

I already have the standard edition. If I buy the complete edition, will they give me the DLС or do I need to buy them separately?

The solo experience is pretty abysmal, but can be done through zen mode. On sale, I'd say yeah get the complete. Try to get the most bang for your buck because this game will nickel and dime you if you want to enjoy it in it's entirety. I've spent far too much money getting all the DLC.

Nothing wrong with the solo mode, but you have to be online. Every normal event can be done solo vs AI. Outside events only thing you'll see is other players doing their own stuff in the big world. You can totally ignore them. I would also recommend turning off the NPC ghosts. They are useless. Though you "have to" do few mass races (pvp) if you want to experience the best parts of the game. I normally don't like pvp but those races are fun and you don't have to win. Zen mode is offline mode, but it has no events.

I recommend standard version if you have never played the game before (beta). How many times have gamers bought full versions with all the DLC and not even finished the base game before they start playing some other game and never look back? Also the controls in this game takes a learning period and many have complained about them since the launch. But if you have the money to throw around and are certain you want it all and like tricks more than races, then get the complete ed.

I guess I should have been way more clear. What I think I meant is that game was touted as an MMO, but you really only ever actually race against bots unless you do mass races or do the multiplayer modes. So you are really left being solo most of the time, which to me felt kinda lonely and lame. That’s why they give you the option to populate the map with bots riding all over the place lol. But yeah, I guess it’s not an abysmal experience, it’s just lonely. I still enjoy the game for what it is, you just have to give up your wallet to enjoy everything.

Standard comes with one BMX bike (LVL 150). You can use it in free roam all over the map: even in the BMX park or skate park that are available to use in standard edition. But if you want BMX career/events (tricks) and sponsors and more bmx bikes, you have to get the DLC. You can also use standard ed. BMX bike in community made events, only place where you can race with it against the clock (even the DLC career doesn't have bmx races, they are all tricks). You can also make your own events with the editor and share them. Can't say about the friends part because I only play the game solo.

i only have base absolutly worth if you like this kinda games

[Vixumi]

the 10 dollar one is worth as well as the skateboard add on BUT you dont need to have the skateboard, its just fun - if you want to grind you can grind to 7000 stars and get the smoke pack at the end, this is at least 60-200 hrs of playtime

they dont have bmx race events, only trick events and you can only use those if you own the bmx career mode (not included in standard version). however you can use a bmx in freeroam but only the base bike, no way to get more improved bikes unless you buy the bmx addon or edition that includes the bmx career.

however you can race with mountain bikes with your friends with the standard edition, it is fun.
